That would be your thoughts which seem to see only in one direction.
You appear to be getting desperate with all of y our attempted denials but no counter arguments.
Religiously pathetic.
Today, I am a atheist. Years ago, I was a agnostic to a Christian god. When it was dealing with other gods I was never raised to support or not supported within the United States -- I was a atheist to those gods. I could study the gods of classical Greece, but, Zeus does not have people today being agnostic of atheist dealing with him. They are gods of myth.
So you didn't find the arguments for the existence of the Christian god convincing
QED: You were a Christian-Atheist
You found the arguments for the existence of the classical Greek gods even less convincing
QED: You were a classical Greek gods Atheist
Bottom line if you didn't believe in the existence of any god or gods, you were an Atheist.
I spend years in study to find the Christian god is made by man....
...Southern Baptists, is more of a irrational religion. It was not until 2000, that the church rejected slavery. The harder religion to refute, and the hardest to refute -- is the Catholic church. Even that I find supporting the Christian faith is irrational, the Catholic church are more rational when they are defending the Christian god....
...the classical Greek gods, is better refuted by the Catholic church. Remember, the Catholic church had to declare the Greek gods were irrational. They killed the faithful, destroyed the tempos, destroyed the teachings. With that, it increased the amount of time in the dark ages. Even that we look at the Greek gods as myth, we spent centuries to undermine the teachings of the Greeks. In times, I do think of myself as a student of Pluto. To undermine him during the dark ages, we accepted English kings who could not read and write, lives until his 40's
I'm sorry you had to spend so much time finding that out
You won't find me defending the Southern Baptist church
Could the Conquistadors turn the planet Jupiter into a Sun and communicate with every human on the planet simultaneously and in their native tongue ?
So no, the Conquistadors did NOT have god like powers.
It is a matter of perspective to the Incas they did.
To you turning Jupiter into a sun is God like in 500 years maybe not so much who knows
It isn't proof of omnipotence
I take your point but the Indians that the conquistadors encountered were uneducated savages and barbarians.
And yes, perhaps riding a horse and wearing an iron suit may seem god like powers to them, we know they are not.
If an entity appeared over the Earth and created a sun, I'd say that was a god-like power.
Do you realize you just proved my point?
No, because if an entitle (be it natural or super-natural) had god-like powers, what is the difference between them and a god ?
Most gods are not omnipotent: none of the Greek or Norse or Egyptian pantheons...or most Hindu gods.Because it is God like to you doesn't make it omnipotent, same as it being God-like to the Incas didn't make the conquistadors Gods or omnipotent.
500 years from now humans might be able to do the same thing.
Most gods are not omnipotent: none of the Greek or Norse or Egyptian pantheons...or most Hindu gods.
How about making a sensible argument ?
"Nothing" seems to sum up what you have to say.
All living creatures are myth unless otherwise demonstrated.
Could the Conquistadors turn the planet Jupiter into a Sun and communicate with every human on the planet simultaneously and in their native tongue ?
So no, the Conquistadors did NOT have god like powers.
In other words, you can't
Again make a coherent argument of shut up.
By all means introduce some facts into your posts...and I'll argue with you.
All living creatures are myth unless otherwise demonstrated.
